[The Sons of Scotland @SOSPB]

Bidding farewell to GG Mary Simon, but her husband has been a terrific patron for our pipe band. Monday brings a special play by our PM for them.
Enjoy your weekend, and come to Manotick if you're nearby!

[The Sons of Scotland @SOSPB]

We are looking forward to playing in Manotick, Ontario next Saturday morning to mark the 50th anniversary of their community with the Dickinson Days weekend. Hope you can come out and be part of the celebrations - there's so much to enjoy!

We had fun! The runners were excellent and we had a good time all morning.

We are playing this morning at the Tamarack Race Weekend, Cheer station 19. It's a wee bit rainy, so it feels kinda Scottish! Our best to all the runners and their great supporters!

[The Sons of Scotland @SOSPB]

Our Patron, His Excellency Whit Grant Fraser, C.C., has a new book out about his life, and he mentioned us. Now, that's a good Scots Patron!

[The Sons of Scotland @SOSPB]

Happy sunny Saturday from Canada's capital! We have hockey, tulips, music and friends - that's a pretty good list. Cheers!

Tomorrow we shall help mark what would have been the 100th birthday of Her Majesty The Queen with a gathering on Parliament Hill at 10:30 am. Come along to be part of a very special video project to share with her family.

@MikeWu36 @Ott_Scot @ScotGovCanada @LordElginHotel Hope you enjoyed our day's show - our pipe band organized it all and we love to work with these terrific partners in the arts. Glad the rain held off too!

Today is our Tartan Day Celebrations on Parliament Hill from 11:30 to 1:30. I hope you can come out, and we hope the day gets warmer for us all.
We have a lovely VIP guest coming and some Royal announcements too - let's celebrate!

Happy Easter!

There will be very limited door sales tomorrow, as the Ottawa Irish Arts @OttawaCCE pre-sales have been very successful.

We had a fabulous time in the Ottawa St. Patrick’s Day parade. The rain held off while we played and we enjoyed a wonderful afternoon. Kudos to the organizers!

[The Sons of Scotland @SOSPB]

Next Saturday, March 7, we will be playing in the Ottawa St. Patrick's Day Parade, which runs from 12 noon to 1:30 pm up Wellington Street past Parliament Hill. Come out if you can and cheer on all the participants!

Working on the Scotland trip keeps the snow at bay. Nothing else will!

[The Sons of Scotland @SOSPB]

Well, we got snow. Lots of it! That means we're all hunkered down doing jobs to make the days ahead better. Learning new tunes, checking things off lists - it is all part of the journey.
Wish you well and stay warm!

[The Sons of Scotland @SOSPB]

It is Christmas morning and we want to wish all our international members, our friends here in Canada, and our families and wonderful supporters all the very best of the day! Here's to a nice holiday week, and lots to look forward to!

A big job for the band underway today with a dedicated crew of technicians...the new band book! A labour of love and gracenotes. New book for the new year.
